Wesley Dean Exclusive Live Music Drop: 'Don't Look Back'

Wesley Dean, an Australian singer/songwriter, an award winning singer/songwriter, no less.

He was born in Adelaide on September 14, 1982.  In the late 90’s at the age of 14, his parents divorced, he moved to Sydney to pursue his dream to write and perform music.  He always knew that was his favorite thing.  He began playing in bars and clubs across Sydney, lying about his age so they’d let him in. Night after night, club and bar after bar, he grew up fast and honed his craft to keep the gig. His collection of songs is a reflection of these early years.

He was criticized and rejected by A&R staff at labels in Australia for writing songs beyond his years, these guys told him there’s no way a young kid can be writing about deep life experiences at 15.  He was actually held back for writing meaningful songs.  His writing has always been a reflection of his life experiences and society. They couldn’t handle it.  He remembered one guy in particular telling him to come back when he was 40. Now, Wesley Dean is the most sought-after musician worldwide.
